my contribution to the thing day! i've spent a lot of time seriously imagining it and managed to draw this up, only to discover i'd lost my lineart pen :/ so this is remaining as a sketch! it's not perfect, despite messing around with it i'm still not quite happy with the current dnp drawings and i cut off the writing (it's supposed to be lyrics from still into you by paramore) but i hope you all like it :)
#dan and phil#dan howell#phil lester#phan#dip and pip#phanart#dnp art#15 years#my god#the current one is based on that one thumbnail and the 2009 one is a screenshot from pinof 1#i love these two#i have a phlaylist that i was listening to while i drew this and i feel like this song was literally made for them#i have a little animatic of them going in my head whenever i listen to still into you#i've done my crafting#now it's time to cry#and go to sleep#and hope that whatever i wake up to tomorrow won't be too world shattering

If I was in a lucid dream with a ghost, I would simply impress them with my blunt rolling skills
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#mdzs au#MDZS disco elysium au#This is brought to you by my Scrambled Egg brain - slowly burning up as I try to finish a long comic for this AU.#I hoped it would be done several days ago but I've changed things so many times....It is now Very Close to being done!#I probably should have just posted each page daily but at this point I'm just being stubborn. I want it complete and together.#Ruining the surprise a bit to say 'yeah its a digital art comic'#But its been tricky figuring out the style I want to use for it!#hence the swaths of MSpain(t) doodles that boil down to 'how would this look if I did X?'#I wanted to do a fully Black & White Ink style. But I scrapped it. Then I did small bits of colour. And scrapped it. Sigh.#This comic started out as just the first panel and then my brain went 'hold on. Its time to make a dumb joke'#Any disco elysium fans who finished the game probably know the scene I'm doing for the *actual* comic after seeing this <3#Anyways I know in my heart LWJ would roll the worst blunts ever his first time. And then dedicate himself to the rolling craft-#-until he has finally mastered it. He would roll blunts so good that people would hire him and pay him a monthly salary for it.#But he declines. His master blunts are for his beloved and his beloved alone.#wwx would roll above average but after having lwj do it for him he can ever go back.

caps from comic Im doing
#not art yet. sorta#yeah that's one piece#outing myself this year as a sanji enjoyer#idk what compelled me to come back here (that's a lie I know 100% and it's haterism) but I did finally sit down and put down#this idea I've sat on for a Long time. bc I think I just. finally feel ready for it#or rather. both it and myself have been worn down and moulded enough by just. time passing. to be able to sit with each other in peace#but yeah I'm now neck deep in this (almost halfway thru inking!!) and Im learning a Lot#whatever u say abt one piece oda is a Phenomenal comic artist. one piece art-wise is dense on a level that makes me feel insane#like you barely see more than one type of screentone used and it's mostly to separate planes. its Just Ink. its fucked up#and drawing this comic is forcing me to show up on my a-game on a craft level as well. I love so much a Large part of it so far#comic is good guys. did u guys know that has anyone said this before#but yeah this one will! probably get posted to my main blog when the posting version is done. which is why I said in the prev ask#that the spheres might intersect soon lol#Im aware this is a stupid way to go about it if u look at it from a marketing/advertising angle. but thats not what Im here for#Im showing u cool bugs I made basically. and when the exhibit happens its gonna have mostly nothing to do with this#but yeah. if u see a comic with these caps in it in the future u will Know#otherwise we keep up kayfabe yeah? for fun. for comfort

Hey y'all, I think I need a little bit of a like reality check again So I know I am prone to rather extreme muscle tension, spasms, and knots; my body does electrolytes wrong, and if I have a flareup of one of my other health conditions it can make my electrolytes wrong enough that my muscles hate it (I've been tested multiple times, there's nothing wrong with my nerves or muscles themselves, it really seems to just be the electrolytes) So I know the degree of muscle issues is unusual, but I thought the like...pattern was common? When you get muscle tension on one side of your body, and then it relaxes (like the next day) do the muscles on the other side of your body tense up, just slightly less bad? And then it like seesaws back and forth from one side of your body to the other, getting less bad each time, until you're back to base levels of muscle tension? And if so do you have any advice on how to prevent that seesaw effect from happening? Like, other than rehydrating and electrolytes, I have those covered
#the person behind the yarn#medical mention#I did not do any crafting today because my muscle tension got my eye again#and when my back is so tense it's pulling on the muscles in my face enough so that I can't open one eye all the way#I try to avoid using sharp things because usually that means I am also having muscle spasms#just maybe not feeling them yet#normally if I have a flareup of one of my other health issues I can take a stress dose of my meds#and that limits the seesaw effect a LOT#but I can't take a stress dose or I have to postpone the test I'm getting done this week and I don't want to do that#I already got the time off work for the test I need to do it#but this is the worst flareup I've had in a long time and I'm out of practice

you know, I really wasn't expecting Jin Guangyao to win the most spots on my art summary this year but you know what he deserves it, probably, maybe... I think I did less art than usual this year though because I spent most of the spring frantically writing a couple massive fanfics, and then most of July I was traveling, so it was rather feast or famine art-wise for me
and now for the breakdown!
This year SVSSS managed to pull into the lead as the fandom I drew the most art for which... is honestly pretty impressive given that I started that series in August? my apologies to literally everyone who could not have expected this sudden deluge... very different from Hogan's Heroes and Torchwood which were my most prolific fandoms last year (ᵕ—ᴗ—);;;
The other fandoms I drew at least several pieces of art for this year include: MDZS, TGCF, Hogan's Heroes and The Disabled Tyrant's Beloved Pet Fish.
The fandoms I drew only 1 or 2 pieces for were: The 10th Kingdom, MASH, The Apothecary Diaries, Back to the Future, Cybersix, Discworld, Dungeon Meshi, Final Fantasy, Lost in Space, The Salt Grows Heavy, Torchwood, Tintin, and Wicked.
The actual breakdown of art for anyone interested
PLUS a bonus gideon and harrow that i was told i had to include u.u
#year in review#art summary 2024#feeling a bit whatever about most of my art this year#i did some nice pieces for sure but by and large i wasn't being too adventurous and i don't think i made any big leaps in improvement#last year i really felt the growth#however i am VERY pleased with my fanfic writing#i posted A Shared Hunger - Hollowed Out And Misaligned - Gentle Currents and Riptides - and Stolen Talents which ended up being WAY bigger#than i expected. that was a really fun story to craft#and the entirety of the Lay Your Wager (Down To Sleep) series which also ended up being really big and which i think i crafted quite well#plus a bunch of shorter things some of which were just goofy but some i'm really pleased with#like 2024 was a GREAT writing year for me and it's nice to reflect on that#i've been feeling rather writing-blocked and discouraged lately so it's REALLY nice to look back and see just how much writing i got done#my art#mdzs#tgcf#svsss

Posting here because it’s the one social media my friend probably can’t see.
After 2 months, I’ve finally finished making this quilt for my friend’s new baby, and I feel pretty proud of it since it’s my first ever quilt (check out those mitered corners bay-bee)! All the right angles a lad could ever want.
I modified a pattern from Missouri Star for their “Summer in the Park” quilt, and finished it with an intense amount of geometric stitching.
#quilt#quilting#nothing like a deadline to get me to finish the first major craft project I've done in years#didn't make it in time for baby's birth#but in time for my flight down to LA

WIP WEDNESDAY THURSDAY
I was hoping to finish something and actually release it so WIP Wedesday wouldn't be needed. QQ But fate said that's not happening. I've been tagged to share a WIP by @inaconstantstateofchange but I won't share a writing snippet. Coming at you from left field with an update on the Bane-kini.
Featuring Gortash prints from mostwantedpotato404 and muffinpoop1 in the background. The gortitties motivate me.
#banekini#gortash#bg3#still some of the dumbest shit i've ever done#My grandfather was a jeweler and I can hear him spinning in his grave#unfinished#wip#bg3 bane#dnd bane#crafts

#kirby#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#so like aliexpress used to have a terrible reputation in terms of like quality and truth in advertising and such right#but like. amazon and etsy are swamped with bootleggers and dropshippers now too#so I figured like. can't be any worse right?#besides I know how to double check descriptions and measurements and examine images critically#I've shopped shady sites before like back when banggood was the only place to get those cute diy miniature kits#(now you can get them at regular craft store chains which is Wild to me)#but I have never opened aliexpress because everyone was always just like 'Never Go There'#(but then again these days folks are doing massive temu hauls left and right)#(so clearly norms have changed even if common perception of aliexpress has not)#I open it up and I immediately find the rug I spent an entire day hunting for unsuccessfully earlier in the month.#and a ton of incredible bootleg kirbs.#and a style of hair clip I've been hunting for for *years*.#soooo I spent the entire day in a pastel fugue lol#(I have not spent any money yet but I'm probably gonna)#(so like I can't confirm that you're not gonna get scammed or whatever just like. use common sense.)#(don't trust sale prices read descriptions/reviews when available and try to avoid work stolen from independent artists)#(that's usually gonna be on printed stuff like phone cases and posters)#(and tbh I have no qualms with stolen official art as long as the quality is as advertised)#(but there's a big difference between stealing from Multinational Corporation and stealing from Some Guy)#anyway done rambling now <3#favorites

Another mini update because I think I deserve to talk about this:

I am changing game plans! I'm not sure if I've mentioned this but... The shell stitch is such a yarn eater. I have four rows of shells, but you actually don't see that there are about eight rows in this because there are intermittently small ones to set up the space for all the shells. These four rows have basically eaten up ninety percent of my skein of 210 yards (192 meters). My question is: should I make one more shell stitch row before transitioning into double crochet, or is four sufficient?
My new plan now is something like this: shell stitch four rows, double crochet until I reach the center of the tallit. The middle will be a few more rows of shells, then back to double crochet until I make it to the other side. I genuinely can't think of a worse idea that thirty-three inches (eighty-four centimeters) of solid white in shell stitch.
(Do note that my camera has completely altered the colors. It does this automatically and I hate it so much. These colors are so much richer and more interesting than how this camera decided to mess with it)
#jumblr#jew by choice#jewish conversion#tallit#personal thoughts tag#shalom crafts#long post#i am unironically trying*not* to be upset about how my phone's camera ALWAYS edits the colors of photos in such an ugly way#it's so... washed out and sad. a photo is supposed to look BETTER than how real life does#i think what upsets me about this is that this is my art that i have spent months on and the colors are super important to me#ANYWAY. i've been stagnant with this project partially because i didn't want to do shell stitch for thirty-three inches straight#while crochet is faster than knit at almost everything... it's still slow-going#i know it can sound pretentious to be like 'this is ~MY ART~'#but honestly i think you need to learn to develop a bit of an ego when you're an artist to counteract the imposter syndrome and stagnation#because i wouldn't have done the shell stitch if i didn't have the ego to be like 'if i cant do it the way i want it can just be ripped out#and me saying i think i deserve to talk about this is because i really like this craft and i've been working kind of sort of hard on it!!!#i think other crocheters know the sheer headache it is to work something this size (51 inches by 71 inches will be the final size)

sometimes I have to remind myself word count does not equal worth/quality
#bee blabs#tho it is hard when I see lengthy ass fics in comparison to my piddly ass ones#but brevity is the soul of wit right ?#I'd rather be brief and clear than windy and dribbly to the point where u miss the point#like I read some chapters of fics and it's so long and waffly and each interaction is filled with wildly similar descriptions#and no hate bc a lot of these fics have very good narratives#but it could have been said in less words ?#so maybe I don't have to feel so guilty over my fic being shorter#bc at least I've said what I wanted to without vying to string together filler words so my fic is longer#besides this cryptic castle fic is at 12k now halfway thru and that's more than I've written in ages for one work#and who knows what that word count will look like when I'm done#for me I'm proud of that as is#gonna remind myself of this post now and then#it might do me some good#besides !! my fics always feel better to me when I consider and meticulously craft each sentence I write
